God created Lucifer as a perfection of beauty,
He was wisest among all the creation of God.
There was nothing unknown to him.
He used to worship God with musics.He was appointed as a Cherub that cover (guard) the throne of the Most High.
He was the mighty one next to God.
But he thought to become greater than God. He said he will become greater than the Most High and establish his throne above the throne of God. So he was removed from the place given to him.
Yet he used to come before God at any time. That means he had the time to repent but he never bothered to repent.
It was before the Crucifixion of Christ, Lucifer was cast out.
Now he is the second in Power after the Mighty God and the God, Prince and the Lord of this world. Soon he Will establish his Kingdom of Peace on this earth. He will persecute all those who don't bow down before him and as a result his kingdom will become a kingdom of war and Blood shed.
Then finally he will be punished by the Mighty God of all Heaven and Earth.

Lucifer didn't just rebel against God. He tried to BE God. He kept blaspheming trying to get his "followers" to deny God. The Bible says that whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit shall not be forgiven.

In ancient Jewish tradition Satan is simply an angel doing the work that God assigned to Satan to do.
The word Satan means challenger. With the idea of Satan challenging us, or tempting if you will. This description sees Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. This idea of Satan works closely with God as an integral part of Gods plan for us. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it becomes clear to us that there can be only one meaningful or logical choice.
Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered polytheistic or setting up the devil to be an equally powerful polarity to god or a demigod.
Oddly, proof for The Christian satan/devil mythology is supposedly found in the ancient Jewish texts that were borrowed to create the bible. One can’t help but wonder how Christians came up with such a fantastically different interpretation of Gods assistant Satan in their theology.
Other hints about Satan’s role in human relations can be seen if you look at the name Lucifer. It’s meaning in the original tongue translates as Light bearer or light bringer. Essentially the bringer of enlightenment. The temptations of the Satan idea bring all of us eventually into Gods light. Hardly the Evil entity of Christian mythology.

Because Goldilocks was busy that day.
It is just a load of bronze age superstition, boiled up by some victorian predjudice storytellers and spat out in a pathetic attempt to organise and segragate portions of society for personal wealth and influence.
The bible is incoherent, inconsistent and in some places just comical. As for all the other 'discovered' junk it is just wonderful - Book of Enoch - what a load of bull that is...
Come on people, use your heads, stop depressing me....

because Lucifer wanted to BE God. So God judged him and his punishment was... the fiery pit. Lucifer was to prideful and it was his downfall. There is only ONE God.

God can forgive and will if the sinner asks for it. However God has given all created things free will, He therefore cannot make someone repent if they do not wish to.

There is no forgiveness without repentance. Lucifer did not repent.
